Mylkinut Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 My Ric and P-Bass are in need of setups. Can anyone recommend some good luthiers in Hampshire? I know of Brian Hayward in Winchester - he's done some good repairs for me but he's been a bit hit-and-miss with my bandmate's gear. I had a look at the recommended luthiers thread but I couldn't see anyone near me. Anyone have any recommendations/steer-clear-ofs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 If you can't find anyone local I'd take the trip up the M3 and see Joe White in Ash Vale. Not cheap but very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houtoe Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 + a million for Joe White, amazing guy, amazing set ups, and not too badly priced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mylkinut Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 Looks like that may be the way forward. The only guy I can find is Tony Rockett - anyone have any experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Horse Murphy Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 (edited) Bob at Kingfisher Music in Fleet is superb. He used to set up and work on Brian May's guitars prior to Queen tours and I have used him on several occasions.

Linus27 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 and another vote for Bob here. I have used him a few times and he is great and will use him again in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
